I was so privileged to talk wth Kathy Kleiner Rubin, who survived an attack by Ted Bundy. In their terrific book, a goal of her and and co-writer Emilie Le Beau Lucchesi is to center the women whose lives he destroyed.

Setting up an interview w a librarian reminds me again how much they RULE. 1. they know and understand any tech you want to use. 2. They confirm promptly and politely (and with proper grammar). 3. they contain vast wellsprings of info.

Idra Novey's TAKE WHAT YOU NEED is an exemplary novel, one of my favorites of recent years. I've read it three times and I'm looking forward to reading it again before talking with the author on March 14, at 6:30 PM at B&N on Atlantic Ave. stores.barnesandnoble.com/event/978006...

If you used BetterHelp before, they probably sold your data. There's a class action lawsuit you can join and hopefully get some compensation.
